We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.
Aristotle Onassis

We can only learn to know ourselves and do what we can - namely, surrender our will and fulfill God's will in us.
Saint Teresa of Avila

Aldous Huxley

That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.

Jim Carrey

People need motivation to do anything. I don't think human beings learn anything without desperation.
Jim Carrey

Learn to think continentally.
Alexander Hamilton

I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than to teach ten thousand stars how not to dance.

Irish poets, learn your trade, sing whatever is well made, scorn the sort now growing up all out of shape from toe to top.
William Butler Yeats

Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.
Kurt Vonnegut

What starts the process, really, are laughs and slights and snubs when you are a kid. If your anger is deep enough and strong enough, you learn that you can change those attitudes by excellence, personal gut performance.
Richard M. Nixon

We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another - until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices.
Richard M. Nixon

You've got to learn to survive a defeat. That's when you develop character.
Richard M. Nixon
